What is the role of education, workforce, and economic development in U.S.

competitiveness?

Massachusetts Governor William Douglas appointed a Commission on Industrial and Technical Education that later became known as the Douglas Commission. The Commission reported:

1. There was a widespread interest in the subject of industrial education.

2. The lack of skilled workmen was not chiefly a want of manual dexterity but a want of what what may be called industrial intelligence.

3. There was a growing feeling of inadequacy of the existing public school system to fully meet the needs of modern industrial and social conditions. The schools were too exclusively literary in their spirit, scope, and methods.

4. To the question of who should bear the expense of technical education, the common answer was the state.

What are the implications for work?

The increasing footprint of automation in cars, trains, planes, and heavy equipment has necessitated a shift from mechanic to “technician.”

Software Motors

ComputersElectronics

Cyber physical systems utilize information technology

(computers, software, and networks, “cyber”) to direct

the communication and control of physical processes and systems (or vice versa).

The structure of technology is evolving from informational to cyber physical.

The technicians who work at the intersection of cyber and physical systems and processes are referred to as “multi-craft technicians,” “multi-skill technicians,” “integrated systems technicians,” “mechatronics technicians,” “engineering technicians,” “instrumentation and control systems technicians,” “process control technicians,” and “Science and Technology R&D technicians” among other names.

Emerging Economy

The role of workforce, education, and economic development collaboration in U.S. competitiveness is to enable innovation.

Similar to space in 1957, cyberspace is now the the platform and engine of education, workforce, and economic innovation, while simultaneously representing an emerging domain of warfare, terrorism, and crime.

The integration of computers, networks, software, and machines (cyber physical systems) has given birth to a new generation of work, education, and economic development.

5.5% STEM JOBS



There are between 3.8 (DOL) and 5.8 (OECD) million people in the US

employed in NIT.

Computer and mathematical occupations are projected to add 785,700 new jobs from

2008 to 2018.

As a group, these jobs are forecast to grow more than twice as fast as the average for

all occupations in the economy. http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/microsites/ostp/pcast-nitrd-report-2010.pdf

In 2008, the Comprehensive National Cybersecurity Initiative listed “expanded cyber education” as one of its key recommendations. In 2009, the Partnership for Public Service produced a report stating that the current pipeline of cyber-

security workers into the government was inadequate.1 In the same year, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates stated that the military was “desperately short of people who have the capabilities [to operate in cyberspace].”2 And in 2011, the Inspector Gen-eral of the Federal Bureau of Investigation reported that 35 percent of the special agents investigating national security cyber-intrusion cases lacked necessary training and technical skills.3 Nonetheless, the U.S. Government and private sector still seek to increase their online operations and dependency in spite of these shortcomings. An expert at the Atlantic Council of the United States sums up this problem: “cy-ber workforce management efforts resemble a Ferris wheel: the wheel turns on and on . . . we move, but around and around, never forward.”4

This paper addresses methods to close the gaps between demand and the current existing capabilities and capacity in the U.S. cyber workforce. A large number of professionals—with not only technical skills, but also an under-standing of cyber policy, law, and other disciplines—will be needed to ensure the continued success of the U.S. economy, government, and society in the 21st-century information age. Innovative methods have been developed by the government, think tanks, and private sector for closing these gaps, but more needs to be done. This paper is part of a larger discussion about the future of the U.S. cyber workforce and existing and new concepts that must be expanded to ensure continued success.

The cyber revolution, part of the broader information revolution first defined in 1984, now touches virtually everyone and most aspects of life—80 percent of

Key Points�X There is widespread agreement in

the public and private sectors that U.S. educational institutions are un-able to meet the growing demand for cyber workforce professionals.

�X It is difficult to measure the true size and requirements for the cyber workforce due to the lack of com-monly agreed upon cyber workforce job titles and duty descriptions.

�X The Federal Government should develop additional methods for streamlining the hiring and con-tracting of essential cyber talent and emphasize the recruitment of cyber workforce professionals with demonstrated competency.

�X Federal, state, and local govern-ments must compete with the pri-vate sector, academia, and interna-tional actors to recruit and hire top cyber workforce professionals.

�X Innovative solutions should be increasingly used to get students engaged in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and cyber studies in order to develop skills in secondary and postsecond-ary students and to recruit them for government service later in life.

There is widespread agreement in the public and private sectors that U.S. educational institutions are un- able to meet the growing demand for cyber workforce professionals.
